Quick repair to right hand mirror

I have bust my right hand mirror pushing my bike through the doorway- need to use my bike tomorrow morning and have got about an hour window to temporarily repair it till my mirror comes! It's a hyosung gt125r so it's got fairings! The stem isn't broke just the mirror where it meets the stem. Cheers

It's a weakpoint on them - araldite and gaffer tape is about the only thing you can do... takes 5 mins.

Make sure you do both, araldite fails next time you give it a tiny knock and gaffer lets it flap about at speed.

Just ride it without the mirror until the new one arrives.

A hole on each side of the crack and a zip tie. Stick a bit of gaffer tape around it.

If you can figure out a way of using a hammer and some wd40 in the repairing process then you'd have used every item from the bodgers toolbox (tm)
